Ebay selling my missing amplifier

Above posts are correct.  If the amp was insured and you were paid the insured value, you have been made whole and have no title or rights to the amp.  The insurer is the amp’s owner and may or may not choose to take action.  The legal exposure of Cargo Largo depends on whether they are a bona fide purchaser, meaning they gave value for the amp without notice it might be being sold by a thief.

You could buy the amp with the insurance proceeds, of course, and maybe even come out ahead, if you can negotiate a good deal.

in 1973, my 1969 Les Paul Custom was stolen in a burglary.  I’m still looking for it!

@audioquest4life "I know USPS has an investigation team that deep dives this stuff in coordination with the FBI due to the criminal elements being involved."

That may well be but the FBI isn't going to focus on some potential one off maybe theft of an amplifier.

Was there a fire sale somewhere on crystal balls?

Was there a fire sale somewhere on crystal balls?

Of course, you are correct. The OP has yet to state how the original lost claim was resolved. I leaped to the conclusion that somewhere during the eight months since it was lost that he received something from the shipper to satisfy the claim. It is unlikely that it was in limbo that long.

No biggie. I can see the frustration of those waiting and wanting to help and/or know the results. I was just in a snarky mood after my morning walk. 😄

All the best,
